Golf in Pine Haven

Pine Haven is a small community in Crook County near Keyhole Reservoir on the Belle Fourche River, in the Black Hills footlands of northeastern Wyoming. The reservoir, created by the Keyhole Dam, is a popular recreational destination for boating, fishing, and camping, and Pine Haven's residential community has developed around this water-based recreation economy. The surrounding ponderosa pine forests of the Black Hills create a forested landscape uncommon in Wyoming, where most communities exist in open plains or sagebrush terrain. Crook County's proximity to South Dakota's Black Hills tourism economy shapes Pine Haven's character. Keyhole Reservoir's cold, clear water supports walleye, smallmouth bass, and trout fishing that draws anglers from across the Powder River Basin and the Black Hills region, and the state park's campgrounds fill quickly during summer weekends.
